Super X4 Flight Control System
Boasting high-performance sensors, the latest Super X4 Flight Control System in M500 can build a high-
precision model exactly the same as a real flight condition, which provides a more accurate data source
and underpins its strong sensing ability. Meanwhile, the advanced self-adaptive algorithm allows it to
perform real-time parameter identification of the system model, minimizing the impact on the drone's
performance under different working conditions or complex environments. Furthermore, the optimized
control algorithm and multi-observation measurement ensure stable flight under the precondition
of guaranteed accuracy and speed of response. In addition, the powerful chip, hardware support and
algorithm with optimized buffer empower the drone to process more variables at the same time.
Positioning System
RTK + GNSS Dual Positioning System with real-time centimeter-level accuracy delivers high-precision
data to support various missions. The built-in 4G module enables the drone to be covered by the XAG
Cloud RTK network, ready for operation without an additional portable base station. With the handheld
terminal accessing the XAG Cloud RTK network as well, high-precision positioning is guaranteed by
differential data transmission via WiFi/4G dual-path. In case of failure to receive differential signals, PPK
is available to support aerial mapping. For areas not covered by the XAG Cloud RTK network, you may
configure via the App to get access to Qianxun network or CORS network to start the mission. Besides,
if anything goes wrong with the RTK positioning system, the GNSS positioning system - essentially a
backup GNSS module offering normal precision positioning - will be enabled automatically to ensure
flight safety.
Communication System
M500 features dual-path communication. One is the 2.4GHz/5.8GHz dedicated path between the
base station and the drone, characterized by short latency, simultaneous downstream/upstream
transmission and transmission of video stream. The other is an all mode 4G path featuring long-
distance communication and strong signal penetration strength, which caters for flight maneuvers and
data transmission inside a 4G coverage area. Both paths are closely integrated and mutually reinforcing,
making M500 a good fit for a broader range of scenarios.
Obstacle Avoidance Radar System
There is a millimeter-wave radar at the front of the aircraft, providing a warning response during the
flight. With a 30m of sensing and detection ahead, it offers obstacle avoidance in the process of high-
speed flight. Obstacles detected, the drone will hover automatically. Then you may have it return to
home. Otherwise, it will keep hovering in place until it depletes the battery and lands automatically.
